"Third brother."
"Finally home!"
Zhu Gaochi immediately showed a smile on his face and walked towards them.
The big fat man's play was still very good, but his son was controlled by Zhu Gaoxu and the others, and he didn't even dare to go out if he didn't perform well.
His existence is to let outsiders see that King Yan is still doing well now, and also to show Jin Yiwei, so that people on Yingtian's side can put down other ideas.
"Brother!"
Zhu Gaosui shouted loudly, walked towards Zhu Gaochi, and gave Zhu Gaochi a warm hug. The two brothers hugged each other and smiled hypocritically.
Zhu Gaochi said: "Just come back. Come in first! I have prepared wine and food to welcome you."
"Thank you, brother!"
Zhu Gaosui acted very cooperatively.
The corner of Zhu Gaoxu's mouth twitched. Seeing how awkward they acted, his toes were about to drop off the three-bedroom apartment. But it was obvious that the third child probably encountered something or was questioned about something in Yingtian, so he would immediately invest in it when he came back. Acting career.
He also cooperated with them to continue the performance and said with a smile: "The third brother is not here, and the eldest brother and I don't know how much we miss you!"
Hearing this, Zhu Gaochi and Zhu Gaosui looked at Zhu Gaoxu at the same time.
I thought that the second child, you acted more awkwardly, and you were too dramatic, with no acting skills at all, but they just laughed, now is not the time to worry about whether it is awkward or not.
When they arrived at the palace, someone brought them wine and food to catch the wind and wash away the dust.
"Mom and dad, are they okay?"
Zhu Gaochi asked.
In fact, what he cared about the most was Xu Miaoyun. As for Zhu Di... he only cared half of it. If Zhu Di hadn't messed up, their Yanfan lineage would not have ended up like this.
Therefore, when asked this sentence, Zhu Gaochi was not acting, but showing his true feelings.
When the situation of his parents was mentioned, Zhu Gaoxu stopped acting. He also missed them very much and cared about them.
Zhu Gaosui said: "My parents are fine, and they live quite comfortably in Yingtian. Although they were demoted to common people, Grandpa Huang finally relented and will give them a certain monthly salary."
As long as the monthly salary is there, then life is basically no problem.
They were also a little relieved.
"Besides, my father bought a few acres of land outside the city and farmed outside. Life is quite easy." Zhu Gaosui added.
After hearing that his parents wanted to farm, Zhu Gaoxu felt unhappy at first.
"Although dad is a commoner, he is also a prince. How can he farm? Come here! Send me a few thousand taels to Yingtian."
Zhu Gaoxu couldn't bear it anymore.
If Zhu Di goes to farm, he doesn't think it's a big deal, but if Xu Miaoyun wants to farm, that's absolutely not possible. The three brothers all respect Xu Miaoyun and treat Xu Miaoyun very well.
"Dick!"
Zhu Gaochi still understands his parents and Lao Zhu, and said: "Our grandpa Huang was born as a farmer and worked as a monk and a beggar. Because of his low background, he is very aware of the people's desire for enough food. Therefore, what Grandpa Huang likes the most is, It’s still farming! What my parents did is to get Grandpa Huang’s attention again. Farming is to Grandpa Huang’s liking, so don’t make trouble.”
Zhu Gaoxu scratched his head and said softly: "Is that so?"
It's just that the three brothers haven't sat together for a long time to discuss family matters with each other like today. Zhu Gaoxu was a little uncomfortable with it being formal.
Zhu Gaochi is still the eldest brother. Although he has been ignored, his majesty is still there. He asked again: "Third brother, is there anything else?"
Zhu Gaosui added: "It seems that's all we have. My parents are doing really well, so we don't have to worry."
He could only talk to Zhu Gaoxu about what happened next.
Zhu Gaoxu understood what the third child meant and said again: "Let's go to the study room. Boss, please go back and rest!"
Hearing this, Zhu Gaochi sighed.
After finally showing his majesty as the eldest brother, he was about to be beaten back to his original form. If his son hadn't been controlled by them, Zhu Gaochi thought that he would have to resist anyway.
Just resist with all your might.
However, Zhu Zhanji was controlled and could not do anything.
Arrived at the study room.
Zhu Gaoxu asked: "Lao San, you have been so cautious since you came back. Has anyone noticed anything?"
Zhu Gaosui explained what happened in Yingtian in detail.
After listening, Zhu Gaoxu fell into deep thought.
I thought that with Zhu Zhanji under control and Zhu Gaochi isolated, many things would go smoothly. Unexpectedly, upon further investigation, there are still many problems.
"When we first arrived in Yingtian, Zhu Yunxuan asked, Grandpa Huang asked, my parents and my fifth uncle all asked."
Zhu Gaosui said: "It seems that there are still some mistakes in our strategy. Should we discuss it with Mr. Han?"
Zhu Gaoxu asked: "You weren't exposed, were you?"
Zhu Gaosui shook his head.
He refused to admit it to death, so it was impossible to expose him. Unless Zhu Di returned to Peiping, other problems would not be discovered.
"Come here, tell Mr. Han."
Zhu Gaoxu said.
After a while, Han Jun came.
After hearing their description, Han Jun also frowned.
"From this point of view, what we did is still not good enough and our control is too strong, which is not a good thing." Han Jun said lightly.
"What does Mr. Han think we should do?" Zhu Gaoxu asked.
"Relax appropriately."
Han Jun analyzed: "I think King Yan attaches great importance to Zhu Zhanji. The two of them continue to hold Zhu Zhanji and his other sons hostage, asking him to show his face outside more, so as to tell Jin Yiwei that King Yan is fine."
If he remains under house arrest, lives in seclusion and never shows his face, it will easily appear that something is wrong with Zhu Gaochi.
"we know!"
Zhu Gaoxu said solemnly: "Thank you, Mr. Han, for the reminder."
As a result, their force on Zhu Gaochi's house arrest was reduced a lot, but Zhu Gaochi still couldn't see where his son was.
As the intensity of house arrest weakened, more people followed and stared at Zhu Gaochi, monitoring everything all the time.
Zhu Gaochi was helpless, but he had to do this.
He was not one to sit still and wait for death. He had been thinking of ways to break the situation and save himself. At least he wanted to find an opportunity to tell Jin Yiwei, who was watching secretly, about his affairs.
As long as Jin Yiwei knows about it, his little cousin can find a way to save him.

Tomu River.
Zhang Fu stayed here for a long time, during which he also experienced a particularly severe cold winter, but they survived it. Now that spring has begun, everything is recovering.
"General."
Buyantai came back and said: "After our continuous efforts, we finally built an artillery, but the power is still far behind that of the Ming Dynasty."
Zhang Fu is reading in the room.
All I read were books on how to forge firearms. This was a technical summary they compiled.
In the past, asking Zhang Fu to read would have been more uncomfortable than killing him.
But it is different now. He is basically the hope of Yan Fan. The most respected King of Yan, Zhu Di, is still waiting for him to rescue him in Yingtian. The only way to do this is through the innovation of firearms.
Therefore, Zhang Fu not only read books, but also led others to make a lot of technical summaries and strive to develop firearms technology as soon as possible. Even if he cannot surpass Zhu Xuan's technology, he should try his best to compete with Zhu Xuan in the future.
"Go and have a look."
Zhang Fu heard that the first artillery piece came out and immediately went outside.
